Wine or emulation? When I had to use Windows for work I used WSL to run my tooling and didn't notice any performance degradation. Does it apply too vice versa?

Although I'm with you on the hardware side. Because I have an Nvidia card my Linux install has been relegated for personal projects only. I already have a workstation supplied by my employer for work.

Sadly the things I need don't work in Wine, Proton etc. I'm looking into running a Windows KVM with hardware pass through, but it's quite the project, and requires a second GPU that I don't have.
